This is their hobby. They have several, but this one is their passion. He has always been drawn to big-wheel bicycycles, and had wanted one for a long time, so he finally discovered one on eBay. His wife's is a replica of an 1886 or '88 model.
This story was an adaptation from an original story in The Kansas Senior Times, by Ursula Turner.

I wish I could learn to do something like that, but I have no balance at all when it comes to bicycles. -
